Formerly an 11th Century Norman Castle, then an early coaching inn, the Castle of Brecon retains all the warmth and character of the coaching inn, mixed with the formality of a late Georgian hotel. Usually three ales are available, often National brands, but with occasional local guests. A large garden boasts stunning views over the Beacons, and the large Ballroom hosts numerous events.

Historic Interest

Built on the site of Brecon Castle late 17th to early 18th century, with later modifications. George IV dined here in 1821. Grade II* Listed. Historic Wales list entry 6852.
